I do have a "normal" email that I use for websites like this. I changed my email on my sony account to that.
The biggest gripe I have with this situation is that it was almost impossible to figure out what the real problem was. I had to dig into the request to find the error that the frontend refused to show me.
If they allow me to register an account with a weird email, why does having that weird email prevent me from paying?

Often times the merchant or payment processor has different systems entirely (and data is simply scraped from the form and input into their system for you). Its happened to me before as well. Specifically when donating to my local PBS station... So the operator doesnt care what your account name is, but the merchant they use to process payments/ensure PCI may care.
- Brian_K_White 5y agoI don't think they were really asking. I think they were pointing out that there is no evidense of this from the user's interface. They go to site x and it fails in inconsistent and unexplained way. It is correct to stick to that and pretend you don't have special insight into sepeerate building blocks and service boundaries behind the scenes.
